Paul Ryan Planning Round Robin Interviews With TV Nets Thursday

By Alex Weprin 

Update: One of my sources now says Ryan’s camp just canceled the interviews. So, false alarm, I guess.

GOP VP nominee Paul Ryan will be sitting down with a handful of TV news outlets for a series of round robin interviews to air on Thursday, two people familiar with the matter tell TVNewser. Ryan is expected to speak with the network morning shows, and possibly a few other programs, they said.

Ryan has given a handful of interviews since being selected to be Mitt Romney’s running mate earlier his month. Thursday is the final day of the RNC however, and will culminate with Romney’s speech. The interviews allow the day to begin with Ryan, and end with Romney. Appearing on the network morning shows guarantees the largest possible audience for the interviews.
